Flour-Prices of flour for Eastern delivery
have been advanced by the Minneapolis mill
ers, equivalent to the advance in freight
rates that have just gone into effect on the
lines of the roads running between here ana
Chicago. That amounts to 5@1Oc Dbl.
They will be enabled to obtain the advance
now that the wheat market is showing symp-
toms of returning life. If the bulge should
be sustained in wheat, as early as next week
flour will be advanced on its merits, indie
pendent of changing freight rates or other
neapolis that feel that their forward con-
tracts have been made with too free
a hand, considering the higher prices
that might be obtained even now.
